Justice lives; even though a citizzen died.By Eric V. MoyeA wonderful book; which chronicles a painful time in our Nation's history. Curriden and Phillips have taken the events which led to the death of just one more poor Black man (one of far too many during that era) and explained how this incident rekindles and reaffirms the notion of the supremacy of Federal law.A book for normal people; not just lawyers or those interested in the law or civil rights. It makes a potentially dry concept (the relationship betweenm the states and the Federal government) come to life. More importantly; its shows just how essential the concept of Federalism can be.Should be required reading for anyone who decries the "meddlesome; activist Federal judges".
